From Brian McTaggart twitter:

@brianmctaggart: Porter's hesitancy to announce the OD roster has to do with several factors, including possible waiver claim.

I really don't like the idea of batting Altuve third, but if Grossman is playing well then I see the reasoning I guess.

Porter is probably the worst lineup setter I've seen.

Altuvw if not in the top 2, needs to help turn the lineup over. That's what you do with high contact hitters who have mediocre discipline.

Because they were only carrying 4 Astros with OF experience.

Grossman
Hoes
Fowler
Krauss


Krauss looks to be a platoon bat at 1B with Jesus Guzman.


Marwin Gonzalez was going to have to be the 4th OFer if Krauss wasn't available. This waiver claim was strictly to pick up a 4th OFer. He's Brandon Barnes with a little bit of less defense but more pop who hits Left handed, so he can give Hoes a day off versus a tough righty.

Jesus Guzman should not see the field. Period.

He will only see it vs lefties. More than likely.

Only a handful of players on this roster should see the field. Period.

We're just working with what we got. Let's do this!!!

Then the Rangers would pick up the RedHawks. OKC is a very desirable team due to its central location

Jonarhon Meyer with the grand slam! Springer, Meyer, and Guzman have all been impressive today.

I fear Mr. Bond is right. But, I'll still be a fan after 2014's 162 games. Call me a glutton for punishment.
